No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao_JulianaSouza_MAP.pdf: 2422404 bytes, checksum: 8e7ec64586fe2c5ad561dc559266aa53 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-11-24 / Objective- This dissertation proposes a model to evaluate the impact of the implementation of the Polo Industrial e Tecnológico da Saúde (PITS), in Eusébio-CE, on development indicators of the affected area. Methodology- Two different approaches to estimate the impacts of the PITS are presented, both of which rely on comparisons between development indicators of the area directly affected with that of similar areas not affected by the enterprise. One consists of comparing the whole Fortaleza metropolitan region with a synthetic Fortaleza, which is constructed by weighing other metropolitan regions in the country. The second approach consists of comparing Human Development Units (UDH) in the immediate vicinity of PITS with that of similar UDHs, both in the Fortaleza metropolitan area and other metropolitan areas of the North and Northeast of the country. Results- The dissertation generated an impact evaluation model that can be characterized as ex-post and quantitative, and which can now be implemented in a relatively straightforward way once post-intervention data become available. Limitations- The dissertation consists only of the design of the impact evaluation. The actual evaluation will only be carried out once post-intervention data become available. Practical contributions- The dissertation generated an evaluation tool that can be implemented, in the future, by any interested party, such as local governments, academics or Fiocruz itself. Social contributions- If implemented, the impact evaluation can inform policymakers’ decisions. The dissertation can also help disseminate the notions of impact evaluation. Originality- The impact assessment of interventions and policies is still not widely disseminated among public entities. As such, the dissertation generates an innovative applied tool for policymakers. / Objetivo- Este trabalho visa propor um modelo de avaliação do impacto da implantação de um grande empreendimento, o Polo Industrial e Tecnológico da Saúde (PITS), em Eusébio-CE, em indicadores de desenvolvimento local sustentável da região. Metodologia- São apresentadas duas abordagens diferentes para estimar o impacto do PITS, ambas considerando a comparação entre indicadores de desenvolvimento sustentável da área diretamente afetada pela intervenção com áreas similares, não afetadas pela intervenção. A primeira abordagem consiste na comparação da Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza com uma região metropolitana sintética à de Fortaleza, que foi construída pelo balanceamento de outras regiões metropolitanas do país. A segunda visa comparar as Unidades de Desenvolvimento Humano (UDH’s) imediatamente adjacentes ao Polo, com UDH’s com perfil socioeconômico semelhantes, tanto da Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza, como de outras regiões metropolitas do Norte e Nordeste do país. Resultados- O resultado do trabalho é um modelo de avaliação de impacto que pode ser caracterizado como ex post e quantitativo, e que pode ser implementado de forma relativamente direta, uma vez que os dados pós-intervenção estejam disponíveis. Limitações- O trabalho consiste apenas no desenho do modelo de avaliação de impacto. A aplicação da avaliação só poderá ser realizada quando os dados pós-intervenção forem disponibilizados pelas fontes secundárias. Contribuições práticas- A ferramenta de avaliação poderá ser aplicada, no futuro, por qualquer parte interessada na obtenção desses dados como, por exemplo, órgãos públicos locais, instituições acadêmicas e a própria Fiocruz, instituição âncora do Polo. Contribuições sociais- Se implementada, a avaliação de impacto poderá orientar as decisões dos gestores locais no sentido de se promover a sustentabilidade da região e do empreendimento. O trabalho também pode contribuir para a disseminação dos conceitos e noções sobre avaliação de impacto. Originalidade- A avaliação de impacto de intervenções e políticas públicas ainda não é amplamente disseminada entre entidades públicas. Dessa forma, a dissertação gera uma ferramenta aplicada inovadora para formuladores de políticas.

A geographic perspective of labour-intensive methods in the development and maintenance of transport infrastructure

Musekene, Eric Nndavheleseni 04 1900 (has links)
The study investigates the extent of distributional impacts of labour-intensive road projects using a geographical approach. The aim is to evaluate infrastructural effectiveness. The central premise is that the interface between road investment and economic development has broad implications that are beyond transportation’s basic purpose of providing access and mobility. Communities are motivated by the outcomes and impacts of road infrastructure development in improving the productiveness of the economy, in line with socio-economic development and other multiplying effects. The objective was to describe the nature and delivery mechanisms of labourintensive road projects, evaluate the impact thereof on the project participants and their communities and explore the constraints and challenges experienced by these initiatives. The impact of the Gundo Lashu programme was measured, based on an assessment of programme outputs, outcomes and impacts, to determine whether the project had the desired effects on individual participants and their households. A matched control case study design, using a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches was adopted. The study found that the Gundo Lashu programme had achieved the expected outputs in terms of the total number of jobs created, total road length constructed and maintained. However, the communities’ socioeconomic outcomes and the impacts of the programme on poverty and sustainable livelihoods were mixed. These conclusions re-affirm the notion that the development of rural road infrastructure alone by labour-intensive construction methods, is not sufficient in tackling poverty. While government is focusing on addressing unemployment and skills development through labourintensive road construction programmes, there is a need to ensure proper integration of government services to make a significant impact. Huge deficiencies exist in the inter-linkages between the programme planning process and the municipal planning system and that there are a number of management and planning, structural and functional, human resources and funding barriers to proper planning, implementation and monitoring of projects within the Gundo Lashu programme. Various challenges and barriers emanates from lack of coordination, political interferences and lack of strategic direction. Key recommendations include comprehensive road planning, better project targeting mechanisms, development of guidelines for future maintenance, skills training and capacity development, and resultsbased monitoring. / Geography / D.

We interviewed 50 institutions that are part of a network of organizations in education to understand how the evaluation is being applied; 2) Learning through the dimension of Policy Learning: Social Learning and Instrumental Learning – Aimed at connecting learning theories in public policy with third sector organizations and learning opportunities through analysis of other experiences and best practices.
